That seems to be quite important for the crew to know!

btw - exo is not too bad for streaking - you will be able to get residues off pretty easy

 

[gtechrob]

c1 is much more critical for this

Microfiber gloves? Never heard of such.

They great when taking off LSP. Usually I so tired by this step I might lay my palm on car. MF gloves really help, to avoid those smudges.

I really like the way this product is applied.

It is a towel we'll be carrying in the not too distant future.

Awesome! I still have some from when PAC(Proper Auto Care) was still open.

It's going on effortlessly so far. I don't see any streaking at all. Great product Rob. :dblthumb2:

Gtechniq was clear that not even IPA would properly prep the surface for application of EXO. Mike spoke with Gtechniq before the broadcast and I believe they approved Wurth Clean Solve.


See above reply.

But I wasn't talking about simply IPA. CG Wash N Gloss at the higher dilution ratio to strip LSP, and then IPA. Wouldn't that be different than just simply IPA? Or would we still need Wurth?

My personal recommendation would be the Griots.
There is not a big difference in sound level between the two machines, but as mentioned each has a unique tone.

yeah! i agree with you i'm going to go with the Griots because of that lifetime warranty! :dblthumb2:

Mike has a very in-depth article on chemically stripping paint. If you want to know the technicalities of it, I would definitely recommend checking it out.

How does EXO compare to that of the Higher-end Carnauba waxes as far as shine goes?

What a difference!

I use my Griots 6" and 3" DA's most frequently out of all of my machines.

Thanks for tuning in and providing product support! :dblthumb2:

It looks like EXO creates a hard-as-nails, glass-like shimmer. A high-end carnauba paste wax produces more of a deep wet look. The former definitely compliments the paint on Hink's Mustang nicely.
